Full names for Ned and Wes (beyond Edward and Wesley)

Boy Names
1

[name_m]Hi[/name_m] berries,

I find boy’s names a bit challenging - often if I like the name I don’t like the nicknames and if I like the nickname I am not so fond of the full name.

Any full name suggestions for [name_m]Ned[/name_m] apart from all the [name_m]Ed[/name_m] names, and [name_m]Wes[/name_m] that isn’t [name_m]Wesley[/name_m]/[name_m]Weston[/name_m]?

I actually really like [name_m]Edgar[/name_m] nn [name_m]Ned[/name_m] but it is a vetoed name.

Thanks!

[name_m]Hi[/name_m] there.

I adore [name_m]Edgar[/name_m] nn [name_m]Ned[/name_m]. [name_m]Edwin[/name_m] is good too. Other than ‘[name_m]Ed[/name_m]’ names though, could you do [name_m]Theodore[/name_m]? [name_m]Nathaniel[/name_m]? [name_m]Nehemiah[/name_m]?

As for [name_m]Wes[/name_m], how about [name_m]Westley[/name_m]!? I get excited, because of the character in ‘The [name_f]Princess[/name_f] [name_f]Bride[/name_f]’ aka the perfect man, LOL. Not sure if you’re a fan or not.

[name_f]Hope[/name_f] this helps. :slight_smile:

Thanks both, you have given me some food for thought.

As for [name_m]Wes[/name_m], I suppose it could work as a full name.
